    silkie sexing

    I'm not 100% sure, but I do believe females can. They just don't get as big as the males. I wouldn't take my word for it though as I am still learning.

    Orphaned Puppies - have any experience?

    By five weeks they are probably old enough to eat normal dog food. I got a dog at that age, and my most recent I got at 4 weeks old. There are a few options you can choose from. If you want to get milk, go to walmart. There is a powdered formula you can purchase there, and you just mix with...

    need advice on dog food for a friend.

    Feeding raw is actually a lot cheaper than buying commercial dog food. At least for me it is with three dogs. Two American Pit Bull Terriers and one Rottweiler. The smallest dog weighs 61.8...

    Silkies do have the cutest chicken butts around I'm already hooked and want more. Thank you! I suspected they are boys, or atleast one of them. Especially since I think one is trying to crow already

    So much for it being indestructable! It looks like he healed well though :) My pups usually like the vet as well becuase of the attention. I'm always worried about the toys they play with, especially Ellie. She likes to destroy every type of toy she can.

    silkie sexing

    I know it is still too early to get an accurate answer, but I was wondering if anybody would like to take a guess at what gender they think these chicks may be. Not the best of shots, but it was their first time outside so they really didn't want to sit still for picture time. They are...

    She is gorgeous! I am finding out that they are extremely hard to sex. Everyday I keep changing what gender I think they might be. Hopefully only one or no roos, but I will take whatever they turn out to be :) Thank you! Thank you! I have been told recently that they are Sizzles. Thank...

    The Sizzle Thread!

    I couldn't think of three boy names which is why I assumed girls. Who knew it would be so hard coming up with names. However I am already led to believe that at least one is indeed a boy.
